As human beings, and professionals, bias is part of who we are and how we navigate the world. In what ways is bias helpful – and harmful – as you work with donors and sponsors? How can we better navigate relationships with supporters while recognizing our own beliefs? How might we set better boundaries and expectations around these critical interactions?
It can be tricky, and every situation is different. But with some planning and thinking through our own beliefs we can find ways to gain confidence going forward, especially when it comes to our work as fundraisers where interpersonal relationships are paramount.
Please join Aliguma Young, CEO of The Super Fundraiser to talk about bias and responding to bias, learning to manage challenging situations, about how to pivot in conversations and set boundaries when talking with supporters and colleagues.
There will be plenty of time for questions and feedback. If you have a question you’d like to ask, please email mcoulson@greaterpublic.org.
